knightec Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I went to a Texas Ranger game a couple weeks ago and had the coolest experience thanks to a couple of nuns who are huge Ranger fans. The two sisters were sitting behind my family and I and there was a Marine who had recently returned from Iraq in front of us. During the course of the game the soldiers found at about the nuns sitting behind us and asked them if they would say a prayer for their son and for all the soldiers that are still in harms way. The sisters asked if there was anyone else who would like to join them. It ended up being a group of over 20 (yes 20) people saying an [i]Our Father[/i] and a prayer for our troops. It was so cool!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
